Maximizes acceleration, top speed, and turn rate. |+| **Type** | Vehicle Chassis | | **Speed** | 10 m/s | | **Source** | Vehicle Fabricator | | **Fragments Required** | 1 |-| **Item ID** | DA_ScoutRay_ItemType |   ![Scout Ray Chassis](Scout Ray Chassis.png)  -The **Tadpole Scout Ray Chassis** is a deployable chassis of the Tadpole that adds extra engines upon a pair of folding wings.+The **Tadpole Scout Ray Chassis** is a deployable chassis for the [[Tadpole]] that adds extra engines mounted on a pair of folding wings. It is designed to maximize acceleration, top speed, and turn rate.   ## Recipe  -The blueprint for the Tadpole Scout Ray Chassis can be found by scanning the Chassis found in the Tadpole Pens, attached to the docked Tadpole.+The blueprint for the Tadpole Scout Ray Chassis is obtained by scanning the chassis found in the [[Tadpole Pens]], attached to a docked Tadpole. It can be crafted at the [[Vehicle Fabricator]].   | Ingredient | Quantity | | :--- | :--- |-| Plasteel Ingot | 2 |-| Advanced Wiring Kit | 1 |-| Dedicated Core | 1 |-| Strong Acid | 1 |-| **Result** | **Tadpole Scout Ray Chassis** |+| [[Plasteel Ingot]] | 2 |+| [[Advanced Wiring Kit]] | 1 |+| [[Dedicated Core]] | 1 |+| [[Strong Acid]] | 1 |  -*Crafted at: Vehicle Fabricator*-  ## Overview  -The Scout Ray Chassis adds a pair of wings to the Tadpole which bear additional engines, allowing for both increased speed and maneuverability, at the cost of greatly increasing the vehicle's width. When the vehicle is not in use the wings fold away.+The Scout Ray Chassis attaches to the Tadpole's built-in hardpoint, adding a pair of wings with additional engines. This modification significantly increases the vehicle's speed and maneuverability, making it recommended for exploration and high-threat excursions into dangerous waters. However, this comes at the cost of greatly increasing the vehicle's width.  -The Chassis can be detached from freely, allowing the player to drop it and use the basic Tadpole if the increased width would make an area inaccessible.+*   **Foldable Wings**: When the vehicle is not in use or docked, the wings fold away to reduce size.+*   **Detachable**: The chassis can be freely detached, allowing players to drop it and revert to the basic Tadpole configuration if the increased width makes an area inaccessible.+*   **Deconstruction**: The [[Habitat Builder]] can be used to deconstruct the chassis if needed.+*   **Hardpoints**: The chassis mounts to the Tadpole's single hardpoint, meaning no other item can be mounted to the Tadpole while this chassis is active. However, the Scout Ray Chassis itself features a hardpoint that can accept items such as the [[Portable Locker]] for additional storage.  -The Habitat Builder can be used to deconstruct a chassis.- -The Chassis is mounted to the Tadpole's built-in hardpoint, and therefore cannot be docked to the Tadpole if the Tadpole's hardpoint already has an item mounted to it. The Scout Ray Chassis also has its own hardpoint which can accept items such as the Portable Locker, allowing for storage.-  ## Databank Entry   **OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS** Dock Tadpole with Scout Ray hydrofoil. Undock Tadpole to swap chassis.   **BACKGROUND** The Scout Ray hydrofoil provides the Tadpole command module with enhanced speed and agility. Recommended for exploration and high-threat excursions into dangerous waters.  -The Scout Ray adds no additional hardpoints or cargo space.+The Scout Ray adds no additional hardpoints or cargo space beyond its own integrated hardpoint.   *Source: Scan a Tadpole Scout Ray Chassis*
